The ROI for Adaptation: Creating Resiliency in Commercial Real Estate
About
The fixed location of real estate assets makes the $2 trillion sector particularly vulnerable to both the acute and chronic impacts of climate change.
Historically, over 90% of climate change planning funds have been directed towards mitigation efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Yet, as the frequency and intensity of natural disasters rises, the focus is shifting towards adaptation planning to protect these valuable assets.
Hear from resiliency and adaptation experts from Tailwind and ClimateFirst for an in-depth discussion about the burgeoning climate-adaptation market that is forecasted to grow into a $2-trillion industry within the next five years.
Katie MacDonald, Tailwind Co-Founder and Managing Partner, outlines their innovation studio’s efforts to accelerate the deployment of climate and resiliency solutions. And Olivia Pink, ClimateFirst Head of Science & Solutions, shares how understanding Climate Value at Risk (CVaR) is key to determining the ROI for resiliency investments in real estate assets and how ClimateFirst automates this calculation.
Don’t miss the chance to gain valuable insights into the rapidly expanding resiliency market and learn how to safeguard your investments through strategic adaptation planning.
